They All Came Out to Montreux

Explores the foundation, music and legacy of the Montreux Jazz Festival. In 1967, Claude Nobs took up the challenge of turning his hometown on the shores of Lake Geneva into an international destination for music. In time, the Montreux Jazz Festival would become a global celebration. Over the years, big names including Aretha Franklin, David Bowie, and Prince all performed at the event. As notably, Claude established a vast archive of filmed performances that would eventually be recognised for its immense cultural value.
